The Circle, short for the Circlejerk, also called the group, is the name for the staff and culture of Sapphire.
See Culture of Sapphire for a list of fads and terms used in Sapphire.
Etymology
In the early years of Sapphire, DIK was not a thing. To have a circlejerk seemed like a foreign idea at the time. At this time, the group's culture somewhat revolved around That '70s Show. The group was interested in the culture involved in the show. The group could relate to the show greatly, as they were always with what some call a natural high. In the show, there was a Circle in which, under the influence of marijuana, the characters conceived many "great" ideas. This concept of a circle of friends [who were "high"] was integrated into Sapphire and from then on the group itself [of Sapphire] was also known as The Circle.
Legacy of That '70s Show
As a result of That '70s Show being essentially a Bible for the group, it set the foundation for modern Sapphire culture to develop. From this show, and other minor factors, Cannabis culture became popular in the group. It is also possible that the sexuality in the show is the ancestor of the modern DIK fad in Sapphire.
